And here I thought Kige Ramsey was my true Kentucky role model, but how can you not idolize a fella who attempts not to smile too much cause he got his "teeth knocked out by a chainsaw." If you ever had a doubt that The South was gonna rise again, then you could learn a thing or two from The Turtleman...

Once a year, Hoover is the place to be. So, make your way through the endless, hurriedly erected strip malls on to the Hoover Met.
On top of LSU's ridiculous 18 game winning streak, Ole Miss has stepped up its play to join the Bengals in the winner's bracket with this Michael Guerrero walk off that woke the suburbs (circa 12:30am)...

Hey, For once, Bama's decided to stick around, so we might even have a sell out or two this weekend. Just do it, fool...I know I will.

Do NOT Get Second Place in the Kentucky Derby
Eight Belles in better days
An equine ambulance reached her on the track and put Eight Belles down.
"There was no possible way to save her," on-call veterinarian Dr. Larry Bramlage said. "She broke both front ankles. That's a bad injury."

Erik's Ballot:
1. LSU - Les Miles is 2 for 3 in the idiot savant coaching department. "So dumb it's brilliant" play calls have become Miles' M.O. this season, and he will either live by it (Florida, Auburn) or die by it (Kentucky). I just hope he doesn't take the still title-contending Tigers down with him.
2. Florida - Kept the SEC East pillow fight interesting. UF is still the best team in the east, as the Gates haven't lost to a divisional foe since November 2005.
3. Auburn - Heartbreaking loss, but it proved what many were starting to realize. Auburn is still top tier.
4. Arkansas - Looked like the Hawgs of better times. 2006. Before all hell broke loose. Could Houston save his job yet?
5. Kentucky - I told a friend in The Grove who doubted Kentucky's offense that Ole Miss and Seth Adams threw for 300 against Florida and Woodson will throw for 400. Well, he threw for 415 and 5 TDs, but he still lost because he can't play both sides of the ball, and there's this small matter of Tim M. Effin' Tebow.
6. Alabama - Sarah Jessica Parker Wilson is the man again, and the Tide upset the turdulent Vols. Is this Saban's "signature win?" (what a homo bama term)
7. Vanderbilt - Has to be the biggest Commodore win since Prohibition. I can't imagine what it must feel like...maybe like a 40-year-old virgin finally taking one to the house? Sorry, Spurrier.
8. South Carolina - My, how the pseudo-mighty have fallen. Did anyone really believe The Cocks deserved #6 anyway? Too many questions. Perfect example of the insanity that is the 2007 season.
9. Tennessee - Jekyll and Hyde. What the hell happened in the second half? Nice job giving the Tiders something to crow about.
10. Georgia - This team deserves to be in the top 25 about as much as I deserve a Pulitzer.
11. Mississippi State - They've been suckin' balls for most of the season, but hey...They beat Auburn. Apparently, if Sly Croom can beat one legit program every year...and remain black, he'll be the head coach at State for many years to come.
12. Ole Miss - Colonel Reb isn't crying anymore. He and Capitan Morgan are back in The Grove "scopin' tail" and attempting to drink away the Ed Orgeron era.

A Vicious Cock Fight!
Maybe it was the rain. Maybe it was the ranking, or the hype. Maybe it was Memphis.
What many thought would be the glorious Andre' Woodson Heisman Coming Out Party, on its national stage with two highly ranked SEC teams doing battle in a rare, legitimate Thursday night throw down, actually turned out to be more of a circus of drunken, epileptic, mongoloid clowns farting wildly and tossing feces at one another. And they weren't tossing it very well.
Woodson actually accounted for as many South Carolina touchdowns as he did Kentucky (2), and he threw yet another pick. So much for that Heisman pipe dream. Damn, he looked bad last night!
Smelley didn't look awful (must. not. make. obvious, pathetic, joke), but I don't think I've ever seen more over-thrown deep passes. That goes for both QBs.
How about that ridiculous first five minutes? Or Smelley's safety avoiding, intentionally grounded turd flung from the lindsey lohan position? What was that all about? How about Jasper Brinkley's capri pants? Brick killed a guy. It was one crazy-assed, moist and soggy, turnover laden grudge match.
So are Spurrier's Cocks really in the divisional driver's seat? Lou Holtz certainly thinks so. Crap. Head-Ball-Coach's preseason talk about winning the SEC isn't quite as humorous now is it? I'm not sayin they're gonna win it, I'm just sayin. Yeah, Click-Clack, you Smelley, pirate hookers.
Second only to the "MOREHEAD" State Hat in it's quasi-preppy, high schoolish, ironic, "I'm not getting any...really," totally acceptable douchebaggery
Kige Ramsey Basks In Kentucky Victory
Good to know that Kige and I are on the same page. The Kentucky Wildcats are the real deal Holyfield. Kige even goes out on a limb to suggest, "They will go to a bowl game this year."
Yeah, no sh*t, Kige. UK is 4-0.
Not so sure about "a good defense" though, Ramsey. The Cats are 73rd nationally in Total Defense. They're just going to have to keep outscoring folks.
